Physics and materials science
A mechanical engineer should be strong on which academic skills?
200
What is the definition of civil engineering?
Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including works like roads, bridges, canals, dams, and buildings.
200
What made electrical engineering identifiable?
The commercialization of the electric telegraph, the telephone, and electric power distribution and use.
200
What is the primary function of environmental engineers?
Environmental engineers study the effect of technological advances on the environment.
300
Mechanical Engineering is very broad due to fact that it covers the areas of electrical engineering, manufacturing, structures, and the fundamentals for aeronautics.
What makes mechanical engineering a broad discipline?
300
Where and when was manufacturing engineering first originated at?
The history of manufacturing engineering can be traced to factories in the mid 19th century USA and 18th century UK
300
Where do you usually see civil engineering?
Civil engineering takes place on all levels: in the public sector from municipal through to national governments, and in the private sector from individual homeowners through to international companies.
300
Name at least 3 of the sub fields of electrical engineering
electronics, digital computers, power engineering, telecommunications, control systems, RF engineering, and signal processing.
300
Many times environmental engineering studies relate to what disciplines?
At many universities, Environmental Engineering programs follow either the Department of Civil Engineering or The Department of Chemical Engineering at Engineering faculties.
400
What is the average salary of a mechanical engineer?
On average, starting annual salary is at around $60,000
400
Manufacturing Engineering overlaps whit what other branches? Name at least 4
mechanical engineering, industrial engineering, electrical engineering, electronic engineering, computer science, materials management, and operations management.
400
What is the difference between civil engineering and architecture?
geographical variations
400
What is the difference between electronic and electrical engineering?
electrical engineers are usually concerned with using electricity to transmit electric power, while electronic engineers are concerned with using electricity to process information.
400
Do Environmental Engineers need to have knowledge in Law and Jurisdictions? Why?
Environmental Engineers have a big impact on the health quality of human kind; they must understand the laws being applied preventing pollution and air and water treatment processes.
500
What is the definition of mechanical engneering?
Mechanical engineering is a discipline of engineering that applies the principles of engineering, physics and materials science for analysis, design, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. It is the branch of engineering that involves the production and usage of heat and mechanical power for the design, production, and operation of machines and tools.It is one of the oldest and broadest engineering disciplines.
500
What else do manufacturing engineers deal with besides production?
This field also deals with the integration of different facilities and systems for producing quality products (with optimal expenditure) by applying the principles of physics and the results of manufacturing systems studies
500
When was the earliest practice of civil engineering first seen? And where?
The earliest practice of civil engineering may have commenced between 4000 and 2000 BC in Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia (Ancient Iraq) when humans started to abandon anomadic existence, creating a need for the construction of shelter. 
500
Who is believed to be the first electrical engineer? What did he created?
The first electrical engineer was probably William Gilbert who designed the versorium: a device that detected the presence of statically charged objects.
